KUMBA EXPLORATION

In the 21st century, a everything depends on the speed and correctness of decisions.
The mining business is no exception. In order for the quality of resource base growth of enterprises to meet the existing standards, it is necessary to carry out proper and high-quality exploration. In order to reduce the risks of exploration, and to make exploration cheaper, our company offers the use of geophysical prospecting method based on the method of high resolution electromagnetic waves (10-1000 MHz) to obtain images of soils and ground structures. The antenna is used to transmit and recover the radar impulses generated by the pulse generator. The returned pulse is then processed to produce images of the soil profile. The main geotechnical applications are imaging the soil profile and locating buried objects. DeepGPR provides continuous resolution images of the soil profile with very little soil disturbance. DeepGPR is especially efficient in geological prospecting and engineering geology.
GPR "Loza" is a pulsed electromagnetic radar for subsurface imaging.
Ground penetrating radar can be used to study the geological structure of the surface at depths of tens and hundreds of meters in a non-disturbing way. DeepGRP implements a number of constructive and methodological principles, which allow probing of record depths (including in wet clayey soils). The principles of GPR do not allow determining the type of a particular mineral or rock. However, DeepGPR survey allows to obtain no less important information - it is the boundaries and structures of rocks. Detailed georadar survey (from 20-30 cm) allows to register small-scale features of geological structures which are inaccessible for classical methods of geophysics. An experienced geologist can easily identify ore-controlling structures and formations from the georadar data. In accordance with the selected position and size of ore-controlling structures, the volume of verification drilling is selected, which will allow to confirm the presence of the necessary mineral, its content and reserves. Under this scheme, the volume of prospecting and exploratory drilling can be significantly reduced. Thus reduced costs on the most expensive part of exploration work.
Our team has experience working in African countries, South America and Asia, on a wide variety of geological sites. This makes us the best choice for any company.
In some cases, in the case of difficult conditions, our company will be happy to offer you airborne radar profiling with the use of helicopters. In this case the radio wave radiated from the helicopter returns to the receiving antenna only for the vertically falling radio beam, while all the rest of the radiation goes into space. A narrow Fresnel zone arises on the surface of the earth, in which reflection occurs from the surface as well as from underground structures.

KUMBA geologists surveyed promising licenses for Tin, Gold.
Remote sensing, anomalies, GPR profiling, vein zones constructed.
Mineralization potential: 155.0 million tons inferred ore.
Identified poly-metallization, rare earths in some veins.
Needs detailed survey, exploratory drilling. Budget: USD 325.3K.

A team of geologists from KUMBA EXPLORATION AND MINING conducted prospecting for Tin, Tungsten, Lithium, and Tantalum licenses under Vesta Enterprises Limited.
Pegmatite bodies within the Vesta license may hold promise for lithium, niobium, and tantalum.
In the license's southwestern part, potential greisen's and vein zones were found for tin, tungsten, and lithium mineralization.
Initial grab samples indicated tin grades of 0.97% and lithium grades ranging from 0.12% to 0.18%.
Mineralization potential is estimated at over 48 million tons of inferred ore.
Identified mineralization suggests poly-metallization, including tin, tungsten, gold, lithium, niobium, and tantalum.
Further exploration requires GPR profiling, geological surveys, drilling.

Estimated budget for exploration work will be - 860.0 thousand

HOW IT WORKS:

The basic principle of remote sensing
is governed by 2 processes viz.
Data acquisition and Data analysis.
It comprises of the following distinct elements:
a) . Energy source.
b) . Propagation of energy through the
atmosphere.
c) . Energy interaction with the Earth’s surface
feature.
d) . Air borne/Space borne sensors to record the
reflected energy.
e) . Generation of sensor data in the form of
pictures or digital information.
It involves examining the data using various
viewing instruments to analyse pictorial data or a
computer to analyse digital sensor data.
 Reference data or Ground truth check is an
essential part of data analysis.
 The acquisition of reference data involves
collection of information about objects, area or any
phenomena that are remotely being sensed.
 Finally the information is presented
to users who apply it to their
decision making process.

Application of remote sensing

Agriculture
 Geology
 Archeology
 Oceanography
 Architecture
 Forestry
 Land-cover and land-use
eology involves the study of landforms, strucures,
and the sub surface to understand the processes
operating in the earths crust.
 Geological studies are not limited only
to the earthremote sensing has been used to
examine the composition and
structure of other planets.
 Remote sensing is used as a tool to extract information about the
land surface , composition or sub-surface.
It is not limited only to direct geological
applications but it is also used to support
logistics,such a route planning for access into
mining area,reclaimation monitoring and
generating base maps upon which geological
data can be referenced or superimposed.

Conclusion

Remote Sensing means acquiring information
about an object or phenomenon from a distance,
without actually coming in contact with the object
under study.
 The quantity most frequently used in present day
remote sensing systems is the Electromagnetic
Energy emanating from the object of interest.
 Principally, there are two types of Remote Sensing
viz. Active and Passive Remote sensing.
 It has two phases: Data acquisition phase and Data analysis phase.
 The underlying principle on which the whole
Remote Sensing technique is developed is that all
objects on the Earth’s surface have characteristic
spectral signatures.
 The applications of Remote Sensing in the Earth’s
science as a whole, especially in Geology is
manifold.
